+1 on the Ertz train, was getting targeted a ton second half last year and Matthews going only helps that. Only negative is very low touchdowns, but seems to be standard among TEs these days

i think the thing about ertz is that he sucks and he's super injury prone

Rafiki's First Edition of THIS OR THAT ---- PPR

Jordan Howardor Fournette ?

McCaffrey or Lynch?

Montgomeryor Mixon ? Only in PPR though.

Doug Martin or CJ Anderson ? Uh, neither. Going WR in this area. There is a nice little flow in the RBs and WR where right around this area you can get Edelman or Benjamin

Fitzgerald or Pryor? Really close on this one. It's probably Fitz floor and Pryor ceiling. But at this point I like ceiling better than floor. But, man has Fitz won me a lot of money over the years.

Cooks or Baldwin ?

Tyreek Hill or Martavis Bryant ? Like both of them a ton. Seems like there are more people willing to take a chance on reaching for Hill and I've been taking Bryant more often.

Keenan Allenor Allen Robinson ? If it is Henne or the way Bortles is playing right now Robinson is going to struggle at times. I'll take the injury risk instead.

Tyrell Williams or Devante Parker ? Williams is getting too much hype because of the extreme target share he got at the end of last year with all of the Chargers injuries. Cutlah and those big receivers sends me to Parker.

I'll post my choices before part 2 after this weekend's games. Have a great weekend all!

hill/bryant is close and allen/robinson can change dependent on who starts at qb there

Jordan Howardor Fournette ? That's super close though. If the Jags sit Bortles its huge for Fournette. It means more scoring opportunities for the rookie.

McCaffrey or Lynch ? Not super high on either of these guys but McCaffrey is going to get force fed touches. They drafted him to high.

Montgomery or Mixon ? Mixon at best is sharing the workload.

Doug Martin or CJ Anderson ? Jamaal charles might take that job from CJ. CJ sucks.

Fitzgerald or Pryor ? I like Pryor a lot this year.

Cooks or Baldwin ? Both are WR1's this year. Baldwinis safer though.

Tyreek Hillor Martavis Bryant ? Tyreek is the new Steve Smith. Total stud.

Keenan Allen or Allen Robinson ? If bortles sits this is a slam dunk.

Tyrell Williamsor Devante Parker ? Tyrell might outscore Keenan Allen this year.

I'll post my choices before part 2 after this weekend's games. Have a great weekend all!

Tyreek is blowing up this year. You heard it here first.

Jordan Howard or Fournette ?
this one is not even close

McCaffrey or Lynch ?
Lynch should have a huge td upside

Montgomery or Mixon ?
Mixon should have the starting role a couple weeks in, and tymont should be limited in some way due to his jealth issues, plus hasnt looked good in preseason

Doug Martin or CJ Anderson ?
CJ didnt look good last year and denver backfield is a mess overall

Fitzgerald or Pryor ?
adp difference is huge between these two both are good picks imo

Cooks or Baldwin ?
never liked baldwin, I think he is a low end wr1/high wr2 at best, while cooks is a boom/bust as it gets (cooks ceiling is much higher as well, and baldwin isnt consistent at all)

Tyreek Hill or Martavis Bryant ?
really high on Martavis, he is a great player, only thing concerning is BB health

Keenan Allen or Allen Robinson ?
i dont like either, but would take AR just for the lol when watching bortles throwing at him. KA havent had great volume and that offense is packed

Tyrell Williams or Devante Parker ?
was already high on him and cutler locked up on him last game, ty looked great last year but he was pretty much the only wr in there

I'll post my choices before part 2 after this weekend's games. Have a great weekend all!

Gonna compile the stats on what you guys picked for This or That. Pretty nice split so far actually. Only landslide is Lynch (and I don't even know that he'll really outscore McC due to ppr)

Jordan Howard or Fournette ?
Howard. Howard is a tier above Fournette for me. Both have the same risks of poor QB play leading to stacked boxes and playing from behind leading to abandoning the run. Howard figures to be more involved in the passing game and has data to support his ability to thrive in this sort of situation vs NFL competition whereas Fournette does not.

McCaffrey or Lynch ?
Lynch for me, but I think this is close and does not matter either way. I don't consider myself an expert so if I have multiple drafts where I need to make this decision in R3, I'll probably try to get equal exposure.

Montgomery or Mixon ?
Montgomery. I have him 2 tiers above Mixon. Don't really get the love for a rookie in a 3 way committee who does not figure to get 3rd down work even if he beats out Hill for early down work. Basically seems like a waste of a mid round pick- either you end up dropping him once bye weeks roll around or you have to tie up a roster spot in the hopes that he pans out as a RB2 as I don't see a path for him to be a top 12 RB this season.

Doug Martin or CJ Anderson ?
Anderson and I have them about 30 picks apart so don't think this is close at all. You have a week 1 starter vs someone who is suspending and may not regain his role depending how the season starts.

Fitzgerald or Pryor ?
This is very close. I take Pryor for the upside. Initially had Fitz ranked higher but after further research and analyzing mocks I decided to move up Pryor but definitely have my reservations.

Cooks or Baldwin ?
Baldwin is a tier above Cook for me but I'm very low on Cooks relative to ADP.

Tyreek Hill or Martavis Bryant ?
I like Hill as I project him to get way more touches than Bryant.

Keenan Allen or Allen Robinson ?
Same tier for me- I have Robinson near the top of it and Allen in the middle but don't see much of a difference. Will be trying to avoid too much exposure to any one WR in this tier, but as a whole, I see a lot of value in this group of WR in the ~35-45 ADP range.

Tyrell Williams or Devante Parker ?
I have Parker higher based on aggregate ranking but admittedly don't know much about either. It seems to me Parker has a clearer path to putting up WR2 numbers without banking on an injury.

I'll post my choices before part 2 after this weekend's games. Have a great weekend all!

Here's my takes on these.

12 team keeper league. I already have 2 keepers and can keep a 3rd. 1/2 ppr - Diggs in 8th round or Jacquizz Rodgers in 16th round are my only other options. Which, if either, should I keep?

Best site out there for PPR draft rankings?

I use razzball for baseball, but struggle finding one I like for football.

Digs for sure, he usually goes a couple of rounds before the 8th

Diggs could end up in the WR10-15 range where Rodgers is just another guy who will get a few decent games because his starter is suspensed.

Re: Martin
He's getting the starting job. He's a significantly better RB than anyone on that roster.

He does look amazing. Lets see how he holds up at 5'11 205.........that's my big concern.

You can safely count on him getting heavy usage though......
